As Internet, client/server, and network technologies mature, the application of these technologies to corporate and institutional intranets has become increasingly important. These technologies provide important communications and collaboration tools which support core organizational functions such as inventory control, purchasing, work flow management, human resource management, data management, and operations. At the same time, the successful development and deployment of corporate and institutional intranets requires a combination of traditional programming skills and newer, collaborative network knowledge. In addition to writing code, intranet developers must understand network topology, interface design, database interface and a myriad of emerging technology skills. ghirardiBCS can assist you in planning, designing, and implementing your company-wide or organizational intranet and provide tutorials for your employees or volunteers to learn how to utilize the site.
